Functional characterization of SSB2: a novel single-stranded DNA binding protein

DNA损伤反应途径的缺陷是许多人类遗传疾病和疾病的基础。对这一途径的详细了解对未来的医学具有巨大的意义。这项拟议的研究将导致一种新蛋白质的功能表征，确定DNA损伤修复途径的新概念，培训年轻研究人员，并使澳大利亚成为这一具有国际意义和高度竞争的研究领域的领先者之一。它将支持促进和维护良好健康的国家研究重点，并帮助澳大利亚利用过多的机会获得未来的经济和健康利益。

Defects in the DNA damage response pathway underpin many human genetic disorders and diseases. A detailed understanding of this pathway has enormous implications for future medicine. The proposed research will lead to functional characterization of a new protein, identify new concepts in DNA damage repair pathways, train young researchers and place Australia among the leaders in this internationally significant and highly competitive area of research. It will underpin the national research priority of Promoting and Maintaining Good Health and help Australia capitalise on a plethora of opportunities for future economic and health benefits.
